  1. Great looking show. Interesting to see some different models and build styles.
  2. Greatg looking paint finish and the perfect color for a full fender '32. The chassis and engine detailing are nice and cleanly done.
  3. Great looking paint finish and I like the basic white color. The chrome trim is all cleanly done. Something about the "Sleeper" look that I just have always liked.
  4. Great looking color and finish. I like what you have done on the chrome body trim. I built one a while ago and as you pointed out the trim is really faint on this. I wish now I had done as you have here on the small trim portions. The trim around the roof and rear window especially.
  5. Great attention to the fine details on the equipment.
  6. Great looking Tow Truck. The bed and the boom look great. Beautiful looking paint work and finish. I like the heavier duty chassis and wheels.
  7. Very nice-looking service vehicle. Your added finish and trim detailing are what makes this good so good.
  8. I like the aggressive look and stance. The rear tires tread pattern looks a little different from other slicks I have seen,

    Like the stance with the wheels and tires. The paint combination looks nice and aggressive. Great looking engine details.

    Great looking color combination. I like how you did the interior trim foil.
  11. Great looking color and the paint finish looks really shinny.
  12. Great looking paint colors and finish. The redlines look good on this.
  13. Beautiful looking finishes and I like the color. Cleanly detailed body trim. Curb side style build?
  14. How about when Duval tells him to go out and run into the Pace Car on the Yellow, since he had run into every other car on the track?
  15. That's just too nice to leave parked at the curb.
  16. Really like what you made out of the scrapes you had to start with. This and your others show a lot of creativity, and the finishes all look great. I now would look at this, and similar kits in a whole new light.
  17. Beautiful looking paint finishes and the trim is all cleanly done.
  18. Built one of these when they came out. This just what we had to work with at that time. Very impressed with your engine on this.
  19. Beautiful looking finishes. The longer you look at the pictures the more details that you start to see. Very well built.
  20. Great looking finishes for a well-used VW. The Diorama and photography along with the background story are really special. As a former VW owner, I can relate to the mechanical issues and the quick fix.
  21. Great looking build and changing the rear deck from a Fastback body style had to be fun.
  22. As others have mentioned, this has a very realistic finish on the body. I like how you removed the body side chrome and drilled out the mounting points. The chrome rims and wide whites look great on this.
  23. Considering all the grief this kit gave you the finished model turned out great looking. Very nice smooth black finish and the wheels and big brakes give it a current look. As I recall the engine in this kit was pretty much a lump of plastic and represented an engine only with a great deal of imagination.
  24. You're off to a good start and I like the sleeper idea. You mentioned some question on interior colors. The dash and metal interior window moldings would have been a medium gray with a very light metallic looking finish. I have done the rear tire treatment you mentioned by using the tires from an AMT/Round 2 Chrysler 300 for the rear. Used to put 8.20 x 15's on the rear of a lot of old cars in 1:1 scale. Larger diameter with somewhat wider tread width and fits the kits wheels anyway.
